Trace-elemental data (Ba/Ca) of benthic foraminifers from core-top sediments of Gullmar Fjord, Swedish West coast

SND-ID: 2021-318

Creator/Principal investigator(s)

Inda Brinkmann - Lund University orcid

Description

Dataset of Ba/Ca in Bulimina marginata and Nonionellina labradorica (CTG-labelled) acquired by Laser-Ablation Inductively Coupled Mass Spectrometry (LA ICP MS; Department of Geology, Lund University, Lund, Sweden). Comprises data of the three most-recently formed chambers (n, n-1 and n-2), as well as the proloculus area (p; B. marginata only). The specimens were collected from core-top samples of two sites in Gullmar Fjord, Swedish West coast, Sweden over a temporal gradient spanning the year 2018 and 2019. The data set is part of a study exploring the response of foraminiferal Ba/Ca to contrasting hydroclimatic conditions. A publication including this data is currently ongoing. Please contact the main author for further details (inda.brinkmann@geol.lu.se).

Sediment cores were recovered with a GEMAX® twin-barrel corer (modified Gemini corer, 9 cm diameter, from Oy Kart AB, Finland). The top 1 cm of the cores were collected and CTG-labelled to identify living foraminifera. Bulimina marginata and Nonionellina labradorica specimens we
